Not gonna blame anyone ...
I was at the MOT station but had to get some cash.
Left the catches open as my headlights needed adjustment.

When I got back the catches were closed. didn't think about it, was just very exited to hear it had passed!
So without checking and probably even looking at my bonnet I got in the car and drove off..

I even strengthened the aerocatches so this wouldn't happen.. now windshield is going in on tuesday. the rubber is still good.
I will use the old bonnet as its still ok but a bit scuffed.
The roof is going to be taken care of by a specialist and I will fit a roofscoop and spray it matt black . 8-)

Dit lots of other things today mainly cleaned up my garage.. it was very hot in my garage but got some small things done.
Its leaking oil a little so need to sort that out.

Sparkplugs looked very good.. nice color. need to recheck the valve clearance as its tapping a little.
also a big decision is made...
BIGGER TURBO

This one is not coping with the amout of air its pumping.It has some minor detonation, my tuner says its a 700hp setup if I change the turbo and injectors.
If I get a bigger turbo I will have to have different settings.

Don't know what yet.. open for suggestions.. need to spool quickly .. gt35 or precision 62? ballbearing surgeprotection etc.. :?

Anyway, still hoping to take it to the track next friday....
but just look at it....
:mrgreen:
